DOGS MUST BE
-
LICENSED
J
The council is goinsr to take
action in regards to the large
number of tramp dogs to be
found in this city.
An ordinance was passed some
years ago concerning the taxing
of dogs and providing a penalty
o f a fine and one days impr'sin-
ment in the city ja il or both of
owners who fail to comply with
the ordinance. A levy of $1 is
made for male dogs and $3 for a
female. The license are to be
roepured from C. W. Kellogg,
city recorder. A metal tag will
be issued, the tag to be placed
on a collar and worn by the dog
at all times.
I f a dog is found within the
city limits who has not the tag
the marshal has the right to take
up the canir e and after posting
notices describing the animal
■aid dog may be shot.
The mayor stated Thursday
that the law would be strictly
enforced and go into effect im
mediately.
The mayor and council are to
be commend?! for the action
they have taken in regards to
the ordinance. It was passed to
rid the town of worthless curs
and should be enforced to the
letter.
The successful man is one who
recognizes his responsibilities
and does not try to evade them.

Practically all the money the railroads take in Is immediate
ly put back into circulation. Railroads do a large volume of
business on a narrow margin of net income. Out of every dol
lar earned from operation by the railways of the United States,
there was absorbed In 1922, by
Wages and Salaries............................................. 44.4 cents
Fuel ....................................................................... 9.4 cents
Other operating and maintenance expenses (In
cluding such itmes as rails and ties, loss and
damage) ............................................................... 25.6 cents
Taxes ...................................................................... 1.5 cents
Net Operating Income ....................................... 13.7 cents
---------------- y<
100.0 cents
Out of this 13.7 cents of net operating income 12.2 cents
went tor interest on bonds and other fixed charges, leaving
1.5 for stockholders. Adding 6.9 cents of Income from outsldo
sources, net corporate income was 8.4 cents, of which 4.9 cents
was paid In dividends, leaving 3.5 cents available for appro,
prlations and surplus.
Gross earnings of the railroads in 1922 wero »1,576,000,000
moro than In 1917. This »1,567.000.000 and more too, war,
immediately paid out again, aa follows:
»918,000,000 In added wages to railroad employes
135,000,000 In added cost of coal, mostly miner's wages
122,000,000 for additional taxes
500,000,000 additional for materials and supplies largely
representing wages
The stockholders and bondholders of the railroads got none
Oi' tho increase.
It is significant that good times arc always coincident with
heavy buying on the part of the railroads and that bad times
are periods of light railway purchases.
The Union Pacific System Is one of the most Important enter,
prises west of the Missouri river. Its nearly 50,000 employes,
and their families, constitute a buying power which Is the
main reliance of many businesses. The purchases of the Union
Pacific System from firms located on the System, or which have
offices on our lines, aggregate millions of dollars each month.
The railways are planning to spend hundreds of millions of
new money during 1924 to better serve the public.
"Our transportation movement during 1923 is the outstand
ing industrial accomplishment of the year The waste or the
year 1929 with Its car shortages. Its derangement of price levels,
stoppage of Industry, probably amounted to not less than a
billion of dollars, and the American people and no economic
fabric could have stood that loss that did not have a totalin-
eome In excess of sixty billions. One great contribution to the
business stability of the past year has been the fact that we
have had a free and regular and orderly movement of trans
portation.”— From address of Secretary of Commerce Herbert
